Biographical history

Wieslaw Michalak (d. July 21, 2012) was a Professor in the School of Image Arts at Ryerson University. Wieslaw was born in Poland, emigrating in the 1980s to England and France, before settling in Canada. He received undergraduate and master’s degrees in Philosophy as well as a PhD in Spatial Analysis from the University of Alberta. Wieslaw began his career at Ryerson as a faculty member in the Department of Geography, transferring to Image Arts in 2007. He served as Program Director of the MFA in Documentary Media from 2007-2009. While at the School of Image Arts, he taught New Media and Photography Studies, and pursued an active career as an exhibiting artist: his work has been exhibited in Canada, the United States, Poland, Germany, France and the UK, and his film, "Attention: Light!" -- a realization of a project envisioned by Paul Sharits, completed with noted Polish filmmaker Josef Robakowski -- has been screened at Lincoln Center in New York as well as the National Gallery in Washington, DC.
